Component Description

Microprocessor Control Board (MCB1)

The Model 280 Microprocessor Control Board

contains the electronic hardware and software

required to monitor and control the unit. It receives

input from the ADI Board and sends commands to

the Output Board to maintain the unit's optimum

operating mode for the current conditions. Status

lights are mounted on the control board to indicate

the operating condition of the microprocessor.

Pre-Start Checkout

Hexadecimal SwitchesFor proper chiller operation, each MicroTech controller must have a unique network address. Thecontroller’s hex switch settings define it’s location in a network as well as it’s unit type. For a stand-alone chiller, the Hi and Lo switches should be set to 0 and 1 respectively. After changing a hexswitch setting, the controller’s power must be cycled by opening, and then closing, the panel circuitbreaker.

Note: The chiller should be in an “Off” mode before resetting the hex switch positions.

Powering the Control PanelThere are three status LED’s located on the model 280 controller which will indicate themicroprocessor’s operating condition. When power is first applied to the control panel, the red resetLED will illuminate for approximately 3 seconds. During this time, the microprocessor is checking thecontrol software and performing internal hardware tests. When these tests are complete the reset LEDwill turn off and the green running LED will illuminate indicating the controller’s circuitry and softwareare operating correctly. The amber output 0 active LED is associated with the external alarm output.This LED may or may not be illuminated at this time based on the setpoints under menu 36.

Figure 3, Status LEDs

If the reset LED stays on or the running LED fails to illuminate, disconnect the controller power byopening circuit breaker CB-1 and re-check the field wiring. Observe the controller’s LED’s while re-connecting power by closing CB-1. If the green running LED still does not turn on, a hardware failureexists or the control software is corrupted. Downloading new control software or replacing the 280controller should correct the problem.

Auto:Local—Will allow the chiller to use it's internal set point selected in this menu screen 1, line2 (local spt). Local is also the selection if a master/slave arrangement exists between two 200series controllers for the purpose of lead/lag control and load balance control.

Auto:Network—Will control the chiller from a remote panel such as a Chiller System Controller(CSC). A network implies two or more 200 series controllers connected to a level 1 device.

Active Spt= This is a status value and cannot be changed. Active spt indicates the current set point(factoring in any reset signals) that is controlling the chiller and can be used to determine if the chilleris maintaining leaving chilled water temperature set point.

Local Spt= This is the actual chilled water leaving temperature for the chiller to maintain if there is nota network. Local spt is active depending upon which set point source was selected. A value must beentered into local spt. This is the default value used to control the chiller if a network communicationfailure occurs.

Startup Dt= This value is added to the active spt set point. When the chiller is waiting for load andthe water circulating through the evaporator exceeds the active spt plus the startup dt, the chiller willstart operation. Example: active spt = 44, startup dt = 10, the chiller will start when the watertemperature exceeds 54.

The startup dt along with the shutdn dt can be used to reduce cycling of the chiller.

Network Spt= This value cannot be adjusted. It is the value supplied by the network if a networkexists. The active spt can be compared to the local spt and network spt to determine which set pointis controlling the chiller.

Shutdn Dt= This value is subtracted from the active spt. When the leaving chilled water temperaturereaches this calculated value, the chiller will shutdown. Example: active spt = 44, shutdn dt = 4, thechiller will shutdown when the water temperature leaving the evaporator is less than 40.

The shutdn dt along with the startup dt can be used to reduce cycling of the chiller.

Chw Reset= There are several methods that can be selected to reset the leaving evaporator chilledwater temperature.

No Reset—This does not provide any reset and is the default value.

Return—This measures the evaporator return water temperature and as the return comes backcooler (indicating cooling load is reduced) the leaving water temperature is increased. Thisreduces motor amps and provides an operational cost savings.

26 OM 200MICRO

4-20mA—This is an optional input to the MicroTech. This input is usually from a buildingautomation system.

As the input changes from 4 to 20 mA, the leaving chilled water temperature is increased fromlocal spt (in a linear manner) until the max lvg spt is reached. When the spt source is set tonetwork, the 4-20 mA input is supplied to the master MicroTech control. The master will issuereset instructions to the slave MicroTech. Upon network communication failure the slave unitwill revert back to local spt control. Network failure on a dual machine will require immediateattention.

Oat—The leaving water temperature set point is increased as the outside air temperaturedecreases. The leaving water temperature set point will be reset upward from the local spt to themax lvg spt (in a linear manner) between the max reset and no reset values. The outside airtemperature can be used to determine when the building load will decrease because of cooleroutside air temperatures. Since the building load is reduced the leaving evaporator watertemperature can be increased providing reduced operational costs.

Ice—This option allows the chiller to operate at temperatures that are required by ice banks. Iceoption requires an external 24 vac input to change the chiller from regular operation to iceoperation. The local spt should be set to equal the ice temperature plus the shutdn dt. The maxlvg spt would determine the normal or day operating temperature. All refrigerant set points mustbe adjusted according to the operating temperatures and pressures.

Max Lvg Spt= This is the highest leaving water temperature allowed when using return, 4-20 or oatreset. This is the day or normal operating temperature if ice is selected as a reset option. If this setpoint is set to high it can cause the compressor to surge and damage the chiller.

Return Spt= This value will control the MicroTech if the chw reset option was set to return. Whenthe return water temperature reaches return spt the leaving evaporator water temperature will beincreased to maintain the return spt. The leaving water temperature will not exceed the max lvg spt.

No Reset At—A value must be entered if oat was selected as the chw reset option. Select an outsideair temperature to stop the reset option.

Reset Signal= The actual value of the external reset signal.

Max Reset At—A value must be entered if oat was selected as the chw reset option. Select an outsideair temperature at which the maximum reset will occur.

Pulldn Rate= This value will determine how fast the MicroTech will allow the chiller to reach local spt.The maximum allowable change in the chilled water temperature in degrees per minute. Compressorloading will be inhibited if the rate of change is exceeded.

Demand Limit—Allows the MicroTech to control chiller motor amperage based on a remote 4-20mA signal supplied by a building automation system input. The 4-20 mA signal limits thecapacity of the chiller and saves electrical demand charges.

Active Spt= This is a status value and cannot be changed. Active spt indicates the set point that iscontrolling the chiller. If current limiting is active, the maximum allowable percent of RLA will bedisplayed. It is a diagnostic aide when compared to the max amp spt value.

Reset Signal= A status value indicating the reset signal (in milliamps) currently being applied.

Min Amp Spt= A value must be entered even if the demand limit option was not selected. This is theminimum amperage (low limit) of the demand limit option and (low limit) for normal chiller operation.The chiller will not unload below this value.

Network Spt= This value cannot be adjusted (0-100%). It is the value supplied by the network level1 controllers.

Max Amp Spt= This value has priority over demand limit and network spt. This should be themaximum operational amperage of the unit. Normal set point would be 100. This value can be used tolimit the operational amperage should abnormal conditions exist.

Soft Load= This value activates the soft load (ramp up) option if set to on. Upon chiller start, softload takes over control when the chiller amperage is equal to the begin amp km and loads up over theramp time to the max amp spt.

Begin Amp Lim= A value must be entered if the soft load option was set to on. Select an amperagevalue that allows the chiller to start and establish proper operating conditions. This will eliminatenuisance start up trips.

Ramp Time= The default ramp time is usually adequate; however the soft load time can be extendedup to 60 minutes.

Press the "NEXT MENU" key and menu 14 (Set Time/Date) will be displayed. Menu 14 has onescreen. This menu is password protected and requires the operator password.

Start-Start= This value determines the minimum time between chiller starts. The chiller must run thetime selected before it will start again. If the chiller runs less that the time selected the timer will haveto time out before another start is allowed. This is to eliminate chiller cycling that could damage themotor by starting to frequently.

Evap Recirc= This value determines the time the chilled water pump must run before the startsequence is started. This value insures that the chilled water system has an adequate load to start thechiller. It also insures that the chilled water pump has time to establish constant flow in the system toprevent nuisance water flow switch trips.

Stop-Start= This value is similar to the Start-Start already described. This time insures that there isadequate time between stop to start for the chiller to become stable or pressures to equalize. This canalso be used to minimize short cycling.

Press the "NEXT MENU" key and menu 19 will be displayed. When cooling tower control is desired,up to four digital outputs may be used to stage multiple tower fans. An optional analog output isavailable for tower bypass valve control. Separate temperature set points are provided for eachcooling tower stage. The first tower stage is turned on when the entering condenser watertemperature exceeds the stage 1 set point. Subsequent stages are turned on when the time since thelast stage change exceeds the minimum stage up time. The number of stages will no be increasedabove the total number of tower stages defined in the cooling tower menu. The number of towerstages is decreased when the entering condenser water temperature drops below the current stage setpoint by more than the stage differential and the time since the last stage change exceeds the minimum

stage down time. The number of stages also will be decreased when the maximum number of stages isless than the current stage.

The sequence described above allows stages to be turned on based on temperature only or on acombination of temperature and time. Control may be based only on temperature by setting the stage1 set point lowest and the other stages set points successively higher. This provides automatic resetof the condenser water as the tower capacity requirements increases. If a specific entering condenserwater temperature is desired at all times, the set points for all stages can be set to the same value andstaging is based on that temperature and the stage up and stage down timers.

Tower Stages= This value will determine how the MicroTech calculates the time to increase ordecrease the cooling tower controlling sequence. The number of stages refers to cooling tower fansor to bypass valve control.

Stageup Time= This value will delay the MicroTech from starting the staging control. This can beused to provide specific system control requirements.

Press the "NEXT MENU" key and menu 20 will be displayed. This menu will provide control of thecooling tower valve. If a bypass valve is to be used to provide a low limit for the tower, the valve setpoint should be set for the Valve Control method and the valve set point should be less than the fanstage 1 set point. In this situation, the number of cooling tower stages is increased only when thevalve position exceeds the maximum position set point so the valve is fully open to the tower whenany cooling tower stage is on. The entering condenser water temperature will vary as stages areturned on and off.

If a relatively constant entering condenser water temperature is desired, the valve set point should beselected as the Stage Control method. In this situation the valve is modulated to maintain the currentstage temperature set point. The number of cooling tower stages is increased only when the valveposition exceeds the maximum position set point and the temperature and time requirements describedabove for staging up are met. The valve will then modulate closed when the temperature starts todrop after the fan stage is added.

The number of cooling tower stages is decreased only when the valve position drops below theminimum position set point and the temperature and time requirements described above for fanstaging down are met. The valve then modulates open as the temperature starts to rise after the fanstage is turned off.

When the chiller is commanded to start, and either type of valve control is selected, the bypass valveis positioned to anticipate the heat rejection needed at the time of startup. When condenser flow hasnot been confirmed, but the chiller is in the start requested state, the valve position is based on theminimum position, maximum position and Oat set points. If the optional outdoor air temperaturesensor is not installed, the valve position is determined solely by the minimum and maximum positionset points. If the maximum and minimum positions are set to the same value, the valve will always beset to that fixed position prior to start-up.

Follow the above sequence to view the alarm menu 29-35 (Alarm Buffers #2-#8).Press the "NEXT MENU" key and menu 36 (Alarm Output) will be displayed. Menu 36 has onescreen. This menu is password protected and requires the operator password. Menu 36 controls howthe alarms are reported through the alarm relay. The alarm relay is the interface to most buildingautomation systems or alarm device such as a bell or light.

Alarms are categorized into three different types. The alarms are defined as warnings, problems andfaults. A warning is a pre-alarm condition and an indication of a potential problem. Problems arealarms that the MicroTech will cause a control modifications in an attempt to correct the problem.Faults are alarms that cause an immediate system shutdown to protect the chiller and its components.

Menu 36 controls the reporting of these alarms via the alarm relay. Use this menu to have only thealarms report that are necessary for your system.

Alarm-Normal= This value defines how the alarm contact will be in its normal (non alarm) position.Normally open or normally closed. All alarms as they report will cause the alarm output to close oropen depending on this setting.

Problems= This value will define how problems will report (open/close) or how (fast/slow) thereporting will occur. Only one can be selected. If fast/slow is selected the alarm contact logic willfollow the 'Alarm-Normal' value selected. Problem alarms are self-clearing but will be recorded into thealarm buffers. Problems are defined as conditions where the MicroTech will try corrective actions toavoid unit shutdown. Example, high head pressure. The MicroTech would unload the compressor toa point where the head pressure was in an acceptable range.

Comm Loss= This value must be set if a network exists. This value will define how the 'Com Loss' willreport (open/close) or how (fast/slow) the reporting will occur. Only one can be selected. If fast/slowis selected the alarm contact logic will follow the 'Alarm Normal' value selected.

Faults= This value will define how faults will report (open/close) or how (fast/slow) the reporting willoccur. Only one can be selected. If fast/slow is selected the alarm contact logic will follow the 'AlarmNormal' value selected. Fault alarms require manual clearing and will cause immediate shutdown of theunit. Faults should be investigated before clearing and allowing the unit to restart.

Warnings= This value will define how warnings will report (open/close) or how (fast/slow) thereporting will occur. Only one can be selected. If fast/slow is selected the alarm contact logic willfollow the 'Alarm-Normal' value selected. Warning alarms are self-clearing but will be recorded intothe alarm buffers.

Press the "NEXT MENU" key and menu 37 (Message Board) will be displayed. Menu 37 has onescreen. This menu allows a technician to post a message via a computer. A message could be postedby a remote computer using the modem.

Master/Slave Setup

Chiller setup for dual unit (WDC) or two single (WSC) units with master/slave and or lead/lag control.There are several menus that require modification to accomplish this setup. The first menu that has tobe modified is menu 26. One MicroTech controller has to be designated as the Master unit. The otherunit will be the Slave unit.

Set the toggle switch on the face of the MicroTech panel (master and slave units) to the stopposition. Go to menu 26 on the Master unit. Only the values that require changes will be discussed.

Slave Address= This value (01.01) is the network address of the slave MicroTech. This value isdetermined by the Hex switches on the MicroTech. The slave MicroTech will always be addressed as01. The master unit can be any hex switch setting greater that 00 but less that FF. (00 & FF arereserved numbers and cannot be used.) The wrong value will disconnect the communicationsbetween the chillers and they would revert back to local control. This could cause damage to a dualchiller unit.

Start-Up= This value directs the lead chiller to unload or not to unload. A dual chiller must unload thelead chiller when starting the lag chiller. This is optional in a two (2) single chiller configuration.

LL Mode= The value selected will direct the network to start the chillers in a fixed sequence.

Auto—The chiller with the least run time will start as the lead unit. The chiller with the most runtime will turn off first when only one chiller is required to meet load conditions.

Slave Lead—The slave chiller will start first each time and the master chiller will shutdown whenonly one chiller is needed to meet load requirements.

Master Lead—The master chiller will start first each time and the slave chiller will shutdown whenonly one chiller is needed to meet load requirements.

Enable Lag= This is the amp value (percentage) when the lag chiller will be started. This value mustbe maintained for a predetermine amount of time to indicate a true load.

LL Swover= Day of week for lead lag switch to occur. This is optional.

Disable Lag= This is the amp value (percentage) when the lag chiller will be shutdown. This valuemust be maintained for a predetermine amount of time to indicate a true load.

Delay Timer= This value is used to delay the start of the lag chiller if the lag chiller is used in a standby mode only. Stand by means the chiller is only started when the lead chiller fails.

Lag-Standby= This value sets the lag chiller as a standby chiller and will only start if the lead chillerfails.

Cycle power to both MicroTech controllers. This is necessary for the hex switch settings and comport settings initialization.

Go to menu 11. Set Auto:Network in this menu for both the slave and master MicroTech. Set thetoggle switch on the face of the MicroTech panel (master and slave units) to the auto position. Thechillers will now start when load conditions require cooling.

Alarms

Any condition that requires corrective action by the controller that overrides normal chiller operationor any condition that initiates an emergency chiller shutdown can be considered to be an alarm.

Alarms are arranged in increasing priority with higher priority alarms replacing any lower priorityalarms that may exist. Once the abnormal condition is corrected, the alarm may be cleared by pressingthe "CLEAR" key.

Alarms fall into three distinct categories: Warnings, Problems, and Faults.

WarningsA warning is enunciated whenever an abnormal condition exists which does not affect chilleroperation.
